Currently, it is only being used by facilities but I am working on rolling it out to the entire team. ServiceChannel is one-stop shopping. It manages everything from work order creation to invoicing and provides multiple avenues to track data, pull reports and even manage my budget. I will also begin to use their Asset Management section. I have been using ServiceChannel for so long and have yet to utilize its full potential.
Pros
I use Analytics which allows me to scorecard my vendors based on my criteria. Analytics also allows me to input my budget and track it.
ServiceChannel provides the ability to track work orders from beginning to end and allows me to only intervene on those work orders that are not following the work order process.
Cons
Companies that have Analytics should be able to provide their vendors access to the same metrics instead of just the ones that ServiceChannel provides.
Sometimes it takes a long time to implement changes.
Likelihood to Recommend
ServiceChannel is the best work order management system on the market.
